Copy Your WebAssign-Integrated Course in Canvas

Copy a WebAssign-integrated Canvas™ course to copy all content and course settings in both Canvas and WebAssign at the same time.

This feature is not available to everyone and cannot be used to copy another instructor's course. Alternatively, see Copy a WebAssign Course to a New Canvas Course.

If this feature is not enabled for your institution, you will be asked to complete additional steps after copying your Canvas course.

Note To request this feature, ask your Cengage representative to enable enhanced course copy.

In Canvas, create a new course.
Copy content from a WebAssign-integrated course to your new Canvas course.

If you are manually selecting which content to copy, be sure to include links to WebAssign.
Navigate to the copied content area in your new course.

The WebAssign links from your original course are shown, but your new course has not yet been created in WebAssign.
To create your WebAssign course, click a WebAssign link.
